Restoration project : Last post of this series — After a friend’s grandfather passed away a few years ago, he inherited a bunch of old #monochrome #negatives. Many were severely #damaged by time’s ravages, and all were obsolete formats that presented serious challenges in both the traditional and digital #darkroom. Doc Herman was a long time #countrydoctor in northern Louisiana who served as a #medic in #ww2 Though probably shot with simple #pinhole #boxcameras with an amateur eye, I love them for their creative composition and intriguing #untoldstories This was my first major crack at #vintagephotography #restoration using both #lightroom and #photoshop to clean them up. The goal was to clean them of scratches, fungus and water damage without removing the natural patina of a vintage photo, or imposing my own interpretation via composition or storytelling. #docherman #wwii #statues #portrait #monuments #europe #analogphotography #vernacularphotography #horse #vintagephotorestoration #stevespeharphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/CPOVIjvlzPk/?utm_medium=tumblr
